They set the mood for a festive evening at the beginning of the reception at my son's wedding reception. Her voice is so beautiful and powerful and she sings in both Italian and English. She was lovely to deal with and understanding of a last minute location change at the venue-the Castello di Potentino. I highly recommend this duo for your own occasion and I know you will be as happy with them as we were!"

Hiring folk bands suits a wide range of events including weddings, ceilidhs, barn dances, festivals, pub events, corporate functions and cultural celebrations. Folk music creates a warm, convivial atmosphere and many bands encourage audience participation through sing-alongs and dancing.
